The pro out of it, I really liked it and might go back on my own. I am in recovery myself and only go to a counselor. I liked a lot of what the people were saying and it was a calming place.

I felt like a couple of times he was trying to manipulate. He said, "I came here because something you said made me think. You said, 'how's that working out for you?' and I realized it's not working." First of all, I got that from Dr. Phil. lol. Second, just seemed like a manipulation...he wants me to feel like I'm saving him and that kind of ticks me off. I don't want to save him - I just want peace in my life. I want him to save himself! My impression is that he thinks that's going to hook me in.

And the other manipulation...he kept saying, "Thank you for offering this." I didn't!!! He ASKED me if I would go with him and I said I would. He always does that. I don't know if he's just arrogant and doesn't want it to seem like he asked or what.
